Summary/Abstract: There is no clear recipe what makes fieldwork successful simply because every field is different. This was confirmed in my own experience when I conducted research for nearly four years between 2010 and 2015 in two geographic areas located far apart in the People’s Republic of China. Thanks to this particular feature of my field researches I gained an insight into how the opportunities for fieldwork in China were influenced by the interests of the political power and, beyond it, by people who live subordinated to this power. The examination of the human factor is in the focus of my study as a kind of ‘footnote’ to doing fieldwork in the People’s Republic of China.
